Fern Hill Hotel is perfectly situated just off the N3 highway from Durban to Johannesburg. It is an ideal stop-over destination well within an hour from the beach, the Drakensberg mountains, a game reserve, bushman paintings and the historical battlefields. It is ideally situated for a tourist visiting South Africa and in addition, Gion Poltera (owner) speaks several languages assuring that you may be greeted in your home tongue.

Established restaurateurs and hoteliers, Gion and Karen Poltera, will ensure your stay is an unforgettable one. You will see why Fern Hill Hotel enjoys the accolade of having hosted Nelson Mandela when he visited and was awarded the freedom of Howick.

Dear Valued Fern Hill Customer

Welcome to the September e-newsletter for 2010!

With winter fading, we’re getting ready for the Christmas rush. It’s possible that Christmas is the last thing on your mind at this point, but for us at Fern Hill, it is our busiest time of the year; in fact, we’ve already started taking bookings for Christmas Day and for end-of-year functions.

We have a wonderful High Tea planned for 10 September in celebration of Spring starting this month. This tea is an ideal event for our elderly guests or those who are taking the day off from work!

Fern Hill Hotel has recently sponsored two bowls tournaments at local bowls clubs: uMgeni Waterfall Bowling Club and Howick Bowls Club. Both events were a success and our team thoroughly enjoyed the afternoons. We look forward to many more in the future!

Warm Regards
Gion and Karen Poltera
